Objectives Social determinants of health (SDOH) and race are associated with disease activity, including lower achievement of the low lupus disease activity state (LLDAS), but it is unknown whether these factors are associated with patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Among a cohort...

Associative Memory and Cumulative Learning in Artificial Intelligence
Conceptual research paper — not peer reviewed. Persistent artificial intelligence should be evaluated by how accumulated experience changes later judgment. This paper develops that proposition through a critical synthesis of associative memory, evolving agent memory, feedback-bas...

BACKGROUND: Female pattern hair loss (FPHL), characterized by progressive follicular miniaturization, is the most common cause of hair thinning in women and increases in prevalence after menopause. While topical minoxidil is approved for FPHL, clinical response is variable. Oral...

Until recently, the study of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pathogenesis has primarily focused on surface structural proteins, with non-structural proteins (NSPs) regarded as less important. However, recent findings have shown the critical role of NS...

ABSTRACT Background Bovine mastitis remains one of the most frequent and costly diseases affecting dairy cattle, with significant impacts on health, welfare, and productivity. Staphylococcus species are among the major pathogens responsible for bovine mastitis, leading to reduced...

Urban drainage systems in rapidly growing cities such as Istanbul are increasingly stressed by short-duration, high-intensity storms that exceed the assumptions of conventional Intensity–Duration–Frequency (IDF) design curves. This study re-examines 1-minute rainfall records from...

Background Cervical cancer is a virus-dependent gynaecologic malignancy and according to GLOBOCAN 2022 cervical cancer is the fourth frequent women cancer in all over the world. Despite this frequency it is rarely seen in developed countries because of the enforcement of cervical...

Abstract Achieving high selectivity and activity in the two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e– ORR) pathway critically depends on the synergistic modulation of a catalyst’s electronic structure and mass diffusion channels. This work proposes an asymmetric modulation strategy...

Introduction Excessive screen use negatively affects adolescents’ self-esteem, self-concept, and body image, largely due to social comparison on digital platforms. Educational interventions are often less effective without community involvement, highlighting the importance of an...

Deadly dates: The relationship between holy days and terrorism
How do terror groups make strategic decisions regarding when to time their attacks? This study examines the logic underpinning attack timing and argues that non-state groups weigh the benefits of amplified psychological impacts during focal points for violence against the costs o...

Aging is a multidimensional biological process that is not adequately captured by chronological age alone. Geroscience—the study of biological mechanisms that drive age-related functional decline and disease susceptibility—therefore requires biomarker frameworks that can identify...

This study examines how leadership stance and AI disclosure shape employee responses to CEO communication during an internal, value-based crisis. It further examines the mediating roles of perceived message sincerity and negative moral emotions and the moderating role of employee...

Drawing on control-value theory and situated expectancy-value theory, this study investigated the relationships between task motivation (i.e., expectancy for success, task values, and task cost), task emotions (i.e., task enjoyment and task anxiety), and cognitive engagement in L...

Molecular Interactions of Bioactive Peptides with Proteins and DNA
Background: This study investigates the molecular recognition of two biologically active peptides (P1 and P2) by key biomacromolecular targets. The studied peptides were previously identified in Babylon snail hydrolysates and have been shown to exhibit antioxidant and cytotoxic a...

Abstract This article aims to evaluate the relationship between the aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI) and the occurrence of perforation, the likelihood of surgical management, and in-hospital mortality in patients with ileus, and to assess its diagnostic performance...

Two-Dimensional Simulations of Long-Term Morphological Evolution Around Tidal Inlets
Tidal inlets connect bays or lagoons to the ocean and undergo continuous morphological changes under the action of tides and waves. Numerical simulations of long-term morphological evolution near tidal inlets are computationally expensive because small time steps are needed for n...
- BiologyOpen access
Alginate lyases depolymerize alginate via β-elimination and serve dual roles in brown-algal biorefining and antibiofilm therapy. Brown-algal and bacterial alginates differ substantially in O-acetylation, yet this key structural distinction and its implications for enzyme performa...

Surgical treatment options for chronic complete traumatic ruptures of digital flexor tendons in dogs
The article describes the treatment results for four dogs with confirmed chronic complete ruptures of the deep and superficial digital flexor tendons.Surgical treatment involved exploration of the injury site, mobilization of the torn tendon ends, and end-to-end repair using a tw...

Phase-change-coupled thermochromic radiative cooling smart windows
Smart windows capable of adaptive solar regulation, thermal energy storage, and radiative heat management are promising for improving building thermal regulation efficiency under variable climatic conditions. Herein, a phase-change-coupled thermochromic radiative cooling (PTRC) s...

Permission meets pressure: institutional risk, CEO self-monitoring and extreme strategic change
Purpose Explain why some multinationals pursue extreme strategic shifts whereas others opt for incremental change by testing how national institutions and CEO behavior interact. Design/methodology/approach We merge institutional-discretion theory with upper-echelons logic in a mo...
